    I wanted to like this movie - and I did like the inderlying themes of morality and love of God. But the movie is terribly slow and plodding and seems to never find it's way. Good movie to watch if nothing else is available -

    This is a classic story of good versus evil. It also is a fair depictioin of the Catholic Church, which you will never get from Hollywood these days.
